Coming up on today's episode of the virtual couch, I'm going back into the archives to bring you my most downloaded episode of all time, my first interview with Dr. Jennifer Finliss and Fife.

0:10.2

Jennifer teaches couples and individuals how to strengthen their relationships over relational and sexual roadblocks and increase their capacity for intimacy, love, sexual expression, and so much more.
